Antoinette Aleitha Simmonds

Antoinette Simmonds passed away on Sunday, November 26, 2017 at the age of 42 years. She will be lovingly remembered by her mother Audrey Stewart; sisters Joan Beverley and Patricia Simmonds; brother Joel Simmonds; and many nieces, nephews, family and friends. She was predeceased by her father Sylvester Simmonds, brother Robert Simmonds and grandparents Gram & Speedy. Antoinette was born in Ottawa, ON. She worked as a rehabilitation practitioner for the CBE and enjoyed her work aiding children with disabilities. She also enjoyed art, music, movies and serving in the church. Her family wishes to express their gratitude to the staff who compassionately took care of Antoinette from units 66 & 68 of South Health Campus and units 93 & 94 of the Rockyview General Hospital. She had a dynamic presence that was larger than life and a heart of gold. With all she accomplished and overcame in her life, she would say her greatest joy was to echo the words found in 2Tim 4:7 “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith.” A Visitation will be held at Pierson’s Forest Lawn Chapel (4121 – 17 Avenue SE, Calgary) on Thursday, December 7, 2017 from 6:00-8:00 pm.
